I sit quietly at the storage yard amongst a multitude of other 'Memory Boxes.' Most used regularly, loved and polished. Other boxes sit amongst us lonely and unloved, desperate for care and attention. My fridge is switched on and filled, blinds opened. Steadies wound up, The Volvo reverses slowly, the hitch lowers and clicks into... Continue Reading →

Quite excited when this little tin landed on my doormat. I'd chosen lavender, my choice out of 6 different scents, with the others being citrus, mint, pure, tropical and spice. The lavender is a very subtle fragrance not over powering as I'd feared. The deodorants come in a handy sized tin and contain no parabins... Continue Reading →
